The clubs from the First and Second Leagues voted in favor of the introduction of a salary cap, the English Football League announced.

In the First League, the third level of football in England, the maximum amount of annual remuneration for players will be 2, 5 million pounds, while in League 2 the ceiling is set at 1, 5.

The ceiling, however, remains conditional, and will include basic salaries, taxes, bonuses, agent fees, image rights and other expenses, but excludes payments related to the rankings for purchases or winning a promotion. In addition, any revenue generated by renting players will be deducted from the clubs` calculations.






With the introduction of a salary cap, the English Football League hopes to help clubs, many of which are experiencing serious difficulties due to the premature termination of the championship predicted by 1x2 predictions and holding matches in front of empty stands.

The English Football League added that talks are still underway to introduce a salary cap for the clubs in the Championship.
